Growing up

Growing up can be exciting, because you are anticipating that age so you can have more privilege.
-like some parents say you cant get a phone until you are a certain age
-you cant wait until you turn 15 so u can get your learners or your first job-when you turn 18 you can go to the club and 21 to drink

But it can be painful because of the same things because it is painful to wait on some things especially if you really want it

Assignment 7

1) I learned that u can be born into slavery and that if your freedom is bought you still can be enslaved if you are caught by a slave owner.

2) The thing that surprised me the most was that fact that you are sold without no say. I hate that you cant be with your family and you have too work for people fro a life time and you don’t get paid for it.

3) We do not have slavery and people can not buy other or command others

My Opinion On Moving

1. What motivates immigrants to come to the United States (today)? Consider what they lose and what they can gain in your argument.

i thank that immigrants to gain freedom, such as where ever they were maybe they did not get to do what they wanted to do. Maybe they thank coming over here they can do what they wanted to do over there without anyone saying anything.They are probably losing communication with there family and a couple pieces of furniture that dont mean nothing. I don't thank they will leave nothing to valuable. Plus coming here they can get a large variety of thing and who knows maybe they will find something they will really like that can replace something that they left.


2. Thousands of Europeans chose to move to the British colonies. Some for economic reasons and some for freedoms. If you decided to immigrate somewhere, would you move for economic reasons or for freedom?

If i was to move, i would move for the freedom. I thank a lot of things come with freedom for example: you can be free and still get a job and do what u want, but if u don't have freedom u might not work where u want to. So that's why i would choose the freedom, because it just fill good to say i am free and i can do what i want.
